IRANIAN PRESIDENT'S DEATH:
Calls, Search Parties, Drones: 17 Hours to Find Iran’s President

Shortly before embarking on a fatal helicopter ride on Sunday, Iran’s president, Ebrahim Raisi, and his delegation of senior officials held a communal prayer. Someone suggested having lunch, but the president demurred, saying he was in a hurry to reach his next destination.

Mr. Raisi boarded the aircraft and sat by a window. The foreign minister, Hossein Amir Abdollahian, stopped for a picture with a crowd that was swarming the tarmac. He smiled and placed one hand over his chest while holding a brown briefcase in the other.

Around 1 p.m., a convoy of three helicopters took off from a helipad on Iran’s border with Azerbaijan, with the president’s craft in the middle. But about half an hour into the flight, the president’s helicopter vanished.

Calls to passengers on the president’s helicopter were met with silence until one answered. “I don’t know what happened,” Ayatollah Mohammad-Ali Al-Hashem said, sounding distraught. “I am not feeling well.” Two hours later, his phone, too, went silent.

As a frenzied 17-hour search unfolded, government officials began an aggressive effort to guard against possible threats from abroad and, especially, unrest at home, mindful of an uprising led by women and girls in 2022 that demanded the end of the Islamic Republic.

While Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was reassuring Iranians on national television that they need not fear any disruption to the country’s security, officials were scrambling.
Iran placed its Armed Forces on high alert, worried that enemies like Israel or ISIS might carry out covert strikes.

It directed media coverage of the crash, controlling the flow of information and banning any suggestions that the president was dead.

The government deployed plainclothes security agents on the streets of Tehran and other big cities to prevent antigovernment protests or celebrations of Mr. Raisi’s death, and the cybersecurity units of the police and the Intelligence Ministry monitored posts by Iranians on social media.

This account of what happened in the hours after the crash was pieced together from the accounts of senior Iranian officials traveling with the president; reports and videos from state television; government statements; open-source reports and video footage; five Iranian officials, including two members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps; three Iranian diplomats; a former vice president; several Iranian journalists; and a photographer who was present at the crisis-management center near the crash and who participated in the search.

The president and a delegation of senior officials traveled earlier Sunday to Iran’s border with Azerbaijan to inaugurate a joint dam project. When the three helicopters carrying them took off, there was a dense overcast, videos published on state media showed.

Also on the helicopter carrying Mr. Raisi and Mr. Amir Abdollahian, the foreign minister, were Mr. Al-Hashem, who was the Friday prayer imam of the northern city of Tabriz; Malek Rahmati, the governor of East Azerbaijan Province; and Gen. Seyed Mehdi Mousavi of the Ansar unit of the Revolutionary Guards Corps, Iran’s equivalent of the Secret Service, who was the chief of presidential security.

The helicopters followed a planned flight route but shortly after takeoff encountered a thick fog in a valley of rolling green mountains.

Mehrdad Bazrpash, the minister of transportation, and Gholam-Hossein Esmaili, the president’s chief of staff, were in the lead helicopter. It had just emerged from the fog when they noticed a commotion in the cockpit.

Mr. Bazrpash asked the pilot what was going on, he told state television in a recollection of those first hours. They had lost track of the president’s helicopter, and it was not responding to radio calls, the pilot told him, suggesting it might have made an emergency landing. The pilot turned around, Mr. Bazrpash said, circling the area several times, but the fog blocked visibility and descending into the valley was too risky.

The two helicopters eventually landed at a copper mine in the mountains in northwest Iran, 46 miles from the closest town. In a matter of hours, a modest office building there would be transformed into an ad hoc crisis-management center, with hundreds of officials, military commanders and even hikers and off-road motorcyclists, Azin Haghighi, a photographer from Tabriz who was at the center, said in a telephone interview.

On state television, Mr. Esmaili said he called the cellphones of Mr. Raisi, Mr. Amir Abdollahian, Mr. Al-Hashem and one other official. Nobody answered.

He dialed the pilot’s number, but it was Mr. Al-Hashem who finally answered.

“Where are you?” Mr. Esmaili asked, recounting the conversation. “What happened? Can you give us a sign to find your location? Can you see the others? Are they all right?”

“I’m in the middle of the trees,” he said. “I’m alone. I can’t see anyone.”

When Mr. Esmaili pressed him for more details, the cleric described being in a forest with burned trees. In subsequent calls, his voice began to fade, and he sounded more confused. After about two hours, he stopped responding.

Mr. Bazrpash called the national aerospace control center for the helicopter’s coordinates, but technicians there could provide only an estimate of the crash area, and because of the site’s remoteness, they could not trace phone signals.

The exact location remained elusive. There was no signal from the helicopter. Panic began to set in as officials on the other helicopters realized that the president’s aircraft had crashed violently and that Mr. Raisi, who was widely seen as a likely successor to the supreme leader, and others on board were either gravely injured or dead.

The officials notified Tehran and requested emergency search-and-rescue teams, but they took hours to arrive, slowed by the hazardous weather and narrow roads that snaked around the mountains, Mr. Bazrpash said in an interview with state television.

Mr. Bazrpash said that the officials in the presidential party did not wait for the emergency crews but set out themselves in cars with people from the copper mine. But amid fog, wind and rain, he said, they were forced to abandon the cars and walk to villages nearby, hoping the local people could help them find the crash site. The effort proved futile, he said, and they returned to the mine.

In Tehran, Mohammad Mokhber, the first vice president who is now the acting president, oversaw a scheduled cabinet meeting. Although he knew about the crash and the possibility that Mr. Raisi had died, he carried on with mundane government business and waited until the end of the meeting to break the news to the rest of the cabinet, according to Ali Bahadori Jahromi, the government spokesman.

Mr. Khamenei, the supreme leader, who had been informed of the accident immediately after officials established that the president’s helicopter was missing, called an emergency meeting of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council at his home, advising its members to maintain order and project strength, according to a member of the Guards Corps and a government official who were briefed on the meeting but were not authorized to discuss it publicly.

The Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance called media organizations and set guidelines for coverage, issuing a gag order against insinuating that the president and other officials might be dead, said four journalists in Iran who requested anonymity for fear of retribution.

The first reports, saying that the president’s helicopter had “made a hard landing,” appeared on state television in early afternoon. For hours, disinformation circulated on official and semiofficial news outlets, with some reports that Mr. Raisi was driving back to Tabriz or was safe and sound, or that passengers on the helicopter said they had all survived.

An Iranian businessman and a media analyst, both with large followings on social media, said in interviews that the Intelligence Ministry contacted them around 6 p.m. Sunday and told them to delete social posts about the crash. The intelligence wing of the Guards Corps arrested a person they said had posted inaccurate information about the president’s helicopter, Fars News reported on Thursday.

By around 11 p.m. Sunday, however, the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance asked state media to switch to calling for prayers and told them to prepare for an official announcement in the morning.

Back at the mine, Gen. Hossein Salami, the commander in chief of the Guards, had taken command of the operation there, settling into a conference room where a large screen projected a 3-D map of the crash area.

“It was chaotic; everyone was on edge,” Mr. Haghighi, the photographer, said. “Search groups would go out in batches and return saying it was impossible to see anything. Inside the control center, people were shouting, running from room to room and desperate for news.”

Iran needed its advanced drones to locate the crash site, but they had been deployed to the Red Sea, so the country had to turn to Turkey, asking it for a drone, a statement from Iran’s Armed Forces said. Ultimately, though, an advanced Iranian drone returned from the Red Sea and found the crash site, the statement said.

At the first sign of light Monday, rescue teams headed out on foot. Mr. Haghighi, who accompanied one of them, said it took them an hour and half to hike up a steep mountain and then down through a muddy forest.

The first to reach the site, however, were the volunteer motorcyclists. Video shows one of them running through the trees, yelling, “Haj Agha, Haj Agha,” as he shouts for Mr. Raisi using a term of endearment. When he encounters the broken tail of the helicopter, the charred wreckage and luggage scattered on the ground, he wails, “Allah o Akbar, ya Hussein,” evoking God and a Shiite imam.

The helicopter had exploded in a ball of fire on impact, the Armed Forces said in a statement, later adding that a preliminary investigation showed no signs of foul play or bullets on the aircraft.
But many officials have questioned whether security protocols were observed and why the president traveled by air under stormy conditions.

The bodies of Mr. Raisi and Mr. Amir Abdollahian were discovered near the debris. They were both burned beyond recognition, according to the three officials in Tehran, two members of the Guards and Mr. Haghighi, who saw the bodies.

Mr. Raisi was identified by his ring, and Mr. Amir Abdollahian by his watch.

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE C.E.O, ADRON HOMES AND PROPERTIES LTD, TO EVERYONE

24/05/2024.

Dear Sir,

As a mouthpiece of God, and having researched and explored Treasure and Park Estates in Shimawa, I hereby, declare this statement, thus:

"For records, mark my word, what you have never heard from anyone all over the world, Shimawa, Ogun State, in a short time, is going to be THE GREATEST prayer MOUNTAIN IN THE WORLD!

And when we are talking about the community called "Shimawa",
we are talking about the following:

(1) The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG)
(2) The Redemption Camp / Redemption City
(3) The new RCCG Auditorium, Shimawa
(4) Myself (Olaide Mudasiru), by His grace, as an offshoot of RCCG, a worker, a minister of RCCG, a servant of God in this Shimawa-God ordained special mission, the reason God made me a strategic partner to Adron Homes through the company's Client Partnership Scheme, so as to be not just a marketer for Adron Homes, but a preacher, a teacher of Adron Homes, a representative of God for / in Adron Homes and Properties Limited.
(5) The Adron Homes and Properties Limited, through their Treasure and Park Estates, situated in Shimawa.

The above listed five personalities, God is using them for great and mighty works that will affect possitively, not only Shimawa, not only Ogun State, not only Nigeria, BUT THE NATIONS ACROSS THE WORLD, necessary for the plan of God to be done on the earth.

This is a display of the glory of Gods Majesty.

It is indeed, a spiritual home.

The Anchor Scripture as revealed by the Holy Spirit to me, is Isaiah 2 or Isaiah 2:2.

Isaiah 2:2: (Interpretation)

Isaiah means this in the sense that
THE LORD'S MOUNTAIN IN JERUSALEM WILL BECOME THE MOST IMPORTANT AND SIGNIFICANT PLACE OF WORSHIP IN THE WORLD, HIGH ABOVE ALL OTHER FORMS OF RELIGION.
The people of all the nations of the earth will finally understand that the God of Israel is right.

Marketers advertise Adron Homes and Properties, Shimawa, as a great real estate, by the help of the Holy Spirit, in this regard, I advertise Adron Homes and Properties, Shimawa, as the WORLD GREATEST prayer. MOUNTAIN . The difference is clear. I am far more than a marketer for the company. I know my worth, I know whom I am.

In other words, in this encounter, Adron Homes is not just a real estate firm,
Adron Homes is GOSPEL,
Adron Homes is about JESUS,
Adron Homes is about GOD,
Adron Homes is a display of the glorify His MAJESTY,
Adron Homes is one of the manifestation of the GREAT PLAN OF GOD ON EARTH.

Anchor Scripture:

Amos 3:7

Surely, the Lord God does nothing, except He reveal his secret to His servants, the prophets.

CONCLUSION

For the above reasons stated, therefore, Nigerians in Diaspora, foreign investors, everyone living in Nigeria, seeking to invest into a real estate in Nigeria, Adron Homes and Properties Estates in Shimawa, among other locations, is the right place, the perfect place to go, a safe haven, a place full of milk and honey, a promise land. The best wisdom ever, is obeying the word of God, therefore, invest wisely.

Internet, please, keep this message for me, for life, forever, for future reference.

The time to build the Kingdom of God is now, let us therefore, rise and build.
United we stand, divided we fall.

How can a Woman be So Heartless to the extent that she would leave her Husband , Go to Sleep with another Man , She is so Sure that she is Pregnant , Then Pin the Pregnancy on her Husband .

The Innocent man , Would be filled with so much Joy that he is responsible for the Pregnancy.

The Kind Situation this man would be when this Heartless woman is Trying to Deliver in the Labour Room ,The Innocent man would be on serious prayer that she delivers Safely

Imagine the Kind of Joy that Fills Oga heart when he hears that His wife has Put to bed .

OGA would call for Celebration ,If na Igbo man ,Oga would would buy Powder ,Rob on Face body etc Jubilating ..

On Naming Ceremony Day , Oga has Made Savings to Buy Big Ram , Invites his well wishers to Naming Ceremony .

1. EFCC arrests the poor.

But...

The same EFCC invites the rich for questioning.


The difference is money.

If you check well, the crime of the poor cannot be compared to that of the rich but they cannot be jailed in Nigeria. That is why ex Kano gov could fight them and escape in this same Nigeria! But you as a poor man, try am now.



Spoiler: One certain time the members of the EFCC came over to my estate and, as you know, picked many boys...even scapegoats (an ice-cream seller waiting for change and etc). Now everyone was labelled a Yahoo Boy. You know they like numbers. Cos the more, the better. I dey watch from my window at the far rear of the other street when negotiations started and some was let go and they squeezed the rest.

Make I give una update: anybody wey you see say EFCC televise after catching, most times are those who didn't meet up the bribe (from the point of arrest).

2. During Environmental Sanitation in Nigeria, there's always a curfew (for the poor), and a pardon for those on essential duties (the rich). One of the two if caught will be squeezed and arrested, then heavily fined, while the other will be saluted and even begged for money by the taskforce.

The difference is your status.


3. The police is meant for the rich against the poor in Nigeria. The rich believe the poor are the major perpetrators of crime.

The police serve as security details for the rich, and they see the poor as another means to flex their powers, and of course extort them. That is why there's a kind of car you'll drive in Nigeria and no checkpoint can dare stop you. Even the soldiers!

Wanna try?

Buy two Hilux, two Tacoma muscle and two Prado. Mix the arrangement: the Hilux and Tacoma at the front and the other two at the back with both Prados in the centre...then drive at 180km/hr on any road in Nigeria. Even if you kidnapped a fellow citizen inside or carry drugs, the policemen, road safety, army, civil defence and gbogbotibgo cannot stop you. Instead, they will help you and be clearing the road off other vehicles and pedestrians.





4. Do you know it's safer to steal bigger sums in Nigeria than smaller sums?

If you steal ₦4000 in St Michaels, Aba, Abia State, before your people even know what's happened, you'd have been roasted by two tyres, two litres of fuel and general beating with only a grace to speak unless it's your last prayer you demand for.

But if you steal ₦50bn in Nigeria, do you know you will go scottfree? At all at all, dem go say make you forfeit ₦50m bail and they'll release you. Now think it, someone who stole ₦50bn is returning ₦50m. That's like stealing ₦100k and being told to return ₦1.




So stealing is legal for the rich. All laws made in Nigeria are for the poor.




I remember when one Road Safety officer stopped me. I was on seatbelt and had my driver's licence with an updated paperwork, fire extinguisher, triangle and even a new spare since I had changed the four tyres. Can you believe what the man threatened to charge me with as he saw nothing else? He said he'd charge me for not moving with my original papers but the photostat. I didn't utter a word and he spoke and got tired until another officer came, asked what happened and told me to go reprimanding him of the overdo. They later begged me for tips and guess what! I didn't give them politely.


5.You think I am lying? Do you know the cell or jail the big men stay in Nigeria is different from the one the poor men stay?



Mr Chairman, with these few points of mine, I wish to educate you that whatever you fit do to make money in Nigeria, just do it.


If you still don't have any reason to have money in Nigeria, just have the money.


I'm available for research writing. Thanks.

Mixed reactions are trailing the removal of five first-class emirs in Kano State and the disbandment of the emirates, Daily Trust Saturday reports

A Federal High Court, Kano Division, had issued an order stopping the Kano State Government from proscribing the four emirate councils and the dethronement of their emirs, including the Emir of Kano, who was replaced by Muhammadu Sanusi 11.

Justice Mohammed Liman granted the order in an application by Alhaji Aminu Babba Dan Agundi, the Sarkin Dawaki Babba of the Kano Emirate.

It would be recalled that former Governor Abdullahi Ganduje divided the Kano Emirate into five, creating and appointing first-class emirs for Bichi, Rano, Karaye and Gaya emirates after amending the Emirate Councils Law.

On Thursday, hours after the Kano State House of Assembly repealed the law, Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf deposed the emirs.

These include the 15th Fulani Emir of Kano, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero; the Emir of Bichi, Alhaji Nasir Ado Bayero; the Emir of Rano, Alhaji Kabiru Muhammad Inuwa; the Emir of Karaye, Alhaji Ibrahim Abubakar II and the Emir of Gaya, Alhaji Aliyu Ibrahim Abdulkadir.

Our correspondents report that the recent development has elicited divergent reactions.

In Karaye, findings revealed that the deposed emir vacated his palace Thursday night as sympathisers gathered to bid him farewell.


There was noticeable presence of security personnel stationed within the palace and in some strategic places in Karaye town.

Also, members of the community were seen conducting their normal activities but with serious concerns over the developing situation.

Abdullahi Ali, a trader said: “It is a difficult situation for all of us. Honestly, I am afraid I cannot say anything.”

Malam Sani, who works in the local government area said, “Whatever you see is from Allah.”

In Bichi, the horses of the deposed emir, Nasiru Ado Bayero, were reportedly evacuated from the palace, together with his other personal belongings.

Gates leading to the palace were manned by security operatives, although residents were seen going about their normal businesses as Friday was market day in Bichi.

“The emir left days before the announcement of his removal. It was nostalgic, honestly,” said Ismail, a school teacher.

Bintu, who said she was indifferent said: “Our prayer is that politicians would find a way of sorting out their differences instead of using traditional institutions to settle scores.

“Look at what is happening; the truth is that it is not worth it because all the emirs are related. It is one family, things like these can create bad blood,” she said.

Similarly, in Gaya, people were seen going about their activities.

Residents said the former emir vacated the palace at midnight on Thursday.

Also, there was no sign of any form of violence or resistance in the town, even as there was the presence of armed security personnel within the town.

A resident, Abubakar Shuaibu, said some people were not happy with the development.

There was similar deployment of security operatives in Rano Emirate.


Our correspondents made efforts to speak with people within the traditional institutions in all the delisted emirates but they were not forthcoming.

Mixed Feelings In Karaye, Bichi, Gaya, Rano As Dethroned Emirs Leave divided over High Court order

Lawyers in Kano were divided yesterday on whether or not the Federal High Court that granted an interim injunction restraining operationalisation of the Kano Emirate Councils (Repeal) Law 2024 has jurisdiction in the matter.

Our correspondent reports that when Babba Dan Agundi, who is a senior title holder rushed to the Federal High Court in Kano, he pleaded with the judge, through his lawyers, to restrain all relevant stakeholders not to temper with the existing emirates.

The respondents in the fundamental rights case are the Kano State Government, the House of Assembly, the Speaker, the Attorney-General, Commissioner of Police, Inspector-General of Police, the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps and the State Security Service.

Speaking on the development, Bashir Muhammad Tudun Wazirci, a lawyer, who defended Governor Yusuf at the Election Petition Tribunal, up to the Supreme Court, said that the judge who granted the order knew that he had no jurisdiction in the case, being a chieftaincy affair.


Tudun Wazirci said although the order had not been served on them, he was only commenting based on what he read in the social media.

Another lawyer, Umar Danbaito, said section 251 of the 1999 Constitution, which confers jurisdictional powers on the Federal High Court, did not include matters relating to chieftaincy affairs.

Danbaito argued that the jurisdiction of the Federal High Court was limited to issues relating to the federal government and its agencies, arms and ammunition, aviation and safety of aircraft, diplomatic, consular and trade representation, among others.

Another lawyer, Felix Jones Osimerhe, said the Federal High Court had no jurisdiction on chieftaincy affairs.

He said that even if it does, the state governor enjoys immunity; and therefore, contempt proceedings cannot be filed against him.

Also, Ali Jamilu said the Federal High Court had jurisdiction on issues relating to fundamental rights and not chieftaincy affairs.

He said Babba Dan Agundi and his lawyers hid under sections 45 and 46 to secure the order, noting that only a state High Court or Federal Capital Territory (FCT) High Court can adjudicate on issues to do with chieftaincy affairs.

Another lawyer, who does not want his name mentioned, said Babba Danagundi could be right if he could convince the Federal High Court that his fundamental human right was infringed upon.

Judge granted order from US – Gov Yusuf

Daily Trust Saturday reports that the reinstated emir was at the Kano Government House yesterday, where he received his appointment letter as the sole first-class Emir of Kano.

He landed in Kano late Thursday and was accorded a low key homecoming reception following security advice.

After issuing the reappointment letter to Emir Sanusi, Governor Yusuf vowed that he would report Justice Liman to the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF) for allegedly issuing the letter from the United States.

“The person that issued the court order was in America but ordering us to stop what we are doing. I must present this issue of abuse before the Governor’s Forum so that we can tackle it accordingly.

“We are agents of following due process, and that is why we did what we did openly before everybody. Those that are meant to maintain the rule of law must follow that also,” the governor said.


No man can take what God has given – Sanusi

On his part, the reinstated emir commended Governor Yusuf and members of the House of Assembly for “summoning courage” to save Kano State and Nigeria through his reinstatement.

“It is a testament that no man can take what God has given,” he said.

The emir spoke shortly after receiving his reinstatement.

He said: “The Arabians used to say that in everything we are going to witness, there is a lesson that shows us that God is there. Whatever is happening to an individual is preordained by Allah; and to those that are sensible enough, it is a lesson.

“God is one, and whatever he does, nobody can change, and what he doesn’t do, nobody can.

“About 10 years ago, in this same place, former Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso gave me my appointment letter as the Emir of Kano. Today, I am here again receiving a reappointment letter from Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf.

“Time will not permit long talks. Whatever we will say we had said when we were leaving. We made it clear that God had preordained time and cause for everything and everyone. He gives leadership to whom he wants and at the time he wants. When he gives, no one can take it away, and when he takes it away, nobody can take it back.

“My governor and our Assembly members will not understand the gravity of what you did for the history of Kano and the country at large. Among Kano emirs, it started from Bagauda over 1, 000 years ago. In this year’s, it was once that we had Emir Muhammadu Koguna, who was overthrown and he came back after some days. This shows that in 1,000 years, there has been no case like what happened now.

“In the northern part of this country, we have seen in different states how politicians balkanised emirates with a state, with one emir becoming 20, some 19. In states of northern Nigeria, there are local governments with two or three first class emirs, all because the system has been destroyed.

“Had it been that this thing that was brought to Kano was allowed, one day we would wake up with emirs of Kumbotso, Bichi, Fagge and 44 others. So, what the government and the Assembly did is a rescue mission,” he said.

I’ve no idea of what happened in Kano – Kwankwaso

The presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in the 2023 general elections and the leader of the Kwankwasiyya movement, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, said he had no idea of what happened in Kano as he was neither briefed nor consulted.

Speaking with BBC, Hausa Service he said: “I will go to Kano very soon and speak with some of the members, especially the Speaker and the governor on what is happening.

“Rabiu Kwankwaso has burnt his hands over dictating what to do. We are still with the governor. It is just a matter of offering advice, and if you are not asked to do so, you keep quiet so long as things are going right. We just pray and hope that they would succeed.”

Daily Trust Saturday had reported that Kwankwaso had revealed that the chieftaincy law would be revisited.

He, however, said, “When I said we would revisit the case, I didn’t say the direction to follow. I just said it would be reviewed. When I go there I will hear what happened; and I am sure they will tell me whatever happened, and whatever they tell me, we will just pray for them. I heard that the Assembly members have repealed the law.

“What we were telling them was that they should go and investigate whether what happened was done out of goodwill or not. What happened appears to be a vendetta or cheating? It is just a matter of: Did Ganduje do right or wrong? It is not about going against him.”

Speaking further about the future of the emirate in relation to political influence, he said, “Those that are looking at it from the perspective of whether it is going to be tenure-based are somehow right, but who started it? When I came back as governor in 2011, everybody knew that the late Emir of Kano, Ado Bayero, was not supporting us. He was supporting Shekarau, but when we got into power we didn’t think of dethroning him. This is why we are telling people that everybody should sit where he belongs.”
